Excellence Evidence: Technology 4

On Tuesdays we have technology at Lincoln Primary School. I'm in the Textiles group, which is Sewing. We are currently working on our product. The Textiles group and the Design group work together. We could choose if we wanted it to be 3D printed or sewn. I chose to make a sewn project and then for my second one I will do a 3D printed one.

I'm creating a bag, it will be made out of black nylon with black zips. I will decorate it with some stuff that is related to my culture eg. hobbies, favourites, friends, family. First I made a prototype, which is basically a mini version of my final one so that I know how I'm going to make it. My prototype is made out of red fabric.

The teacher didn't have nylon or zips yet so I couldn't start so instead I planned what I wanted to have on it. I've decided to have my initials, then surrounding my initials on the whole bag I will have little pictures of things that relate to my culture (examples of culture above.)

After that we had to pack up to get back on the bus to go back to school.

The learner quality I showed was resilience by not giving up when the teacher didn't have the right fabric for me.

I showed leadership by going onto a different task when my fabric wasn't ready. Instead of sitting there and doing nothing.
